Nickel Plate arts is pleased to welcome veteran art instructor Jeannette Pomeroy Parssi as its new drawing instructor. Jeannette will lead classes for adults Monday nights from 7-9 p.m., Oct. 7 through Dec. 9. The cost is $110 for the 10-week session. Drop-ins are welcome. The cost is $11 for a single class. This popular 10-week drawing class is available to adult artists at all skill levels, basic to advanced. "This is a great class for beginners and a relaxed opportunity for more experienced artists," according to Koda Witsken, Exhibits & Sales Manager for Nickel Plate Arts.
Parssi will also lead classes for tweens, with instruction in basic drawing technique Wednesdays from 4:30 - 5:30 p.m., Oct. 9 through Nov. 7. Cost for the 7-week session is $75. “We firmly believe the words of Picasso, who said every child is an artist, and these classes will allow young artists to find their artistic voice,” said Witsken.
Jeannette Pomeroy Parssi has been a professional artist for more than twenty-five years. She enjoys sharing her passion for art with others and is pleased to be joining Nickel Plate Arts as its new painting and drawing instructor. Jeannette has been teaching painting and drawing for more than fifteen years and recently served as maker-in-residence at Ignite Studio, located within the Hamilton Southeast Library in Fishers. 2019 marks her sixth year as a member of the faculty at Michigan’s famed Interlochen Center for the Arts summer art camp, where she developed the camp’s Global Arts Program.
